44 Questions I Have For Drew University
Wikipedia

As 2017 goes into full swing, I’m immediately reminded that this will be my last semester in college. In the midst of ordering new books, sorting through student loans, and frantically searching for internships, I’ve been contemplating my last four years at Drew University. Here’s a list of some questions I gathered for Drew administrators, faculty, and students to ponder:

  1. Why do you have fire drills at the worst times?
  2. Why do the vegetables always taste like wet cardboard?
  3. Have you ever heard of decent spices or seasonings?
  4. Why do you always sell unripe bananas at Peet’s and the EC?
  5. Why did you switch to Peet’s anyway?
  6. Was that chill down my spine the lack of proper heating or a ghost breathing down my neck?
  7. Why did it take you two whole years to renovate Baldwin, but only half a semester to fix the roof of the DoYo?
  8. How disgusting are the suites after a whole night of partying?
  9. Why do we only have two classrooms for the entire psychology department?
  10. What was the point of getting rid of the Madison Avenue shuttle?
  11. Would it kill you to install some security cameras in the dorms?
  12. Out of the infinite names there are for collegiate teams, why do we have to be the Rangers?
  13. Why does Public Safety flip out when someone screams in the middle of the night and then turn a blind eye to sexual assault?
  14. How do you sleep at night when you charge $5 for water?
  15. Can Asbury upgrade to central heating like every other dorm on campus?
  16. Why did you build the campus on a hill?
  17. And why do you have freshman dorms at the very top?
  18. Why does the C-Store only open after 6?
  19. Going back to dining, why do we only have meal exchange at certain times of the day?
  20. Why do we have Meal Exchange on only certain foods? Shouldn't we have it on everything?
  21. Why didn't we celebrate Black History Month even though 9.8% of students identify as black?
  22. Why does Brown 3rd and every room in Asbury feel like the 4th layer of hell?
  23. Do you actually pay attention to sexual assault cases on campus or do you just devote your time and energy to confiscating marijuana and alcohol?
  24. Why do you have registration cut offs based on the number of credits?
  25. Why do the showers in Hoyt and Tolley/Brown look like little space pods?
  26. Are they even cleaned?
  27. Why the heck does it take Facilities over an hour to reach my dorm if it’s only 20 feet away?
  28. Can we think of a better mascot than a bear?
  29. Why is the campus completely deserted on weekends?
  30. Why do we close the dorm side entrances after 9 PM?
  31. Speaking of dining, can we get better service than Aramark?
  32. If the EC can have a compost bin, then why not Peet’s or the Commons?
  33. Why is the Health Center closed at the most inconvenient times?
  34. Do I just put my illness on hold until you open up again?
  35. Or magically fix my broken leg?
  36. Why can’t we get an actual pharmacy on campus?
  37. Where are the classes on important life skills, like Cooking 101 or Financial Management 401-K?
  38. Why did it take you so long to address the leaky steam vents near Brother’s College?
  39. And why haven’t you noticed that Hoyt Lawn has those too?
  40. Exactly why is 6 in the morning a good time to use leaf blowers?
  41. What do you use the side rooms in the Commons for?
  42. What happened to the tree sculptures two years ago?
  43. Why did we only have one night of UPB Bingo last semester??
  44. Why are the chicken nuggets so good?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
